Hello, everybody. Welcome to Hot Topics, 10 a.m. Eastern Time here on the Don Lemon Show on the Don Lemon Channel. We have lots of news for you today. Not is Trump gay? That was yesterday. Maybe confused by the thumbnail that you saw. That was yesterday. But today, put up what we're talking about, Andy. We're going to talk about Donald Trump's big birthday bash that was not a birthday bash. That's today's thumbnail, if we can get that one up. And there we go. Breaking snooze. Trump's party sucked. We're going to take you behind the scenes of Donald Trump's big birthday party because it was not a big birthday party. It was actually a very tiny, tiny birthday party. Lots of little D energy. at Donald Trump's birthday party.
And then there are some important rulings that we may have some breaking news coming up on this program as you hit the like and the thumbs up. They're deciding on birthright citizenship and birthright citizenship, which could change the constitution, change what it means to be an American citizen, change what it means where you have to be born and all kinds of things. So we'll see what happens, all right? So good morning. Good morning. Let me know where you're streaming from.
What went wrong at Trump’s America 250 kickoff and why are people walking out?
Thank you for joining us. And straight to a great guest, too. Great guest. Recy and Clay are coming up. But I want to get now to our Washington, D.C. correspondent, Mr. Daniel Grimes, who is in front of the Supreme Court. So he's going to be ready for any decision that we get. But also, you were, as they say, you were the suspect in the vicinity last night. The big 250 birthday. Do we have some B-roll of this before we get to Daniel? This is a big birthday that Donald Trump, you know, that he, there we go. That's his rally from C-SPAN. So it was very military, lots of military, very patriotic. And very boring. And as Daniel will tell us, and the video will show, is that people started walking out. Am I wrong, Daniel?
In between. Take us there, sir.
Don, you sent me right into the belly of the beast. Good morning. As you said, I'm here in front of the Supreme Court. We're expecting some decisions potentially today, so that's why I'm here. But talking about last night, oh, my goodness. I talked to some characters. We were cackling. before jumping on the call so we're going to share those with you but first andy i know you've got the footage of folks leaving while donald trump was going through his greatest hits if you could play that because you're going to see folks just leaving in droves i mean look at them oh my gosh take us off and we want to see that look at that i mean you can hear him talking about the largest producer of oil and gas and
wow yep wait this was happening but he's still on stage when this is happening oh yeah you can hear him in the background talking about the being the most favorite nation how he's brought down calls for americans that's people are probably leaving dawn because even they well i don't know when you hear the people i spoke to i don't know if they're going to acknowledge the lies but hopefully maybe that's some of those people were like listen You're talking about how gas prices have come down, how we're paying the cheapest at the grocery store. And I just went to the grocery store today and it was crazy. So I'm sure that's what a lot of those people's on their minds is like, this president's lying.
Maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe. Because let me just tell you.
Is it fair? Is it fair to say that this thing was a bust?
Well, I mean, you know what? No, Dom, because you know what? They had an artist bigger than Beyonce herself. They had an artist so big. I mean, they had to book her last minute that she was that big.
Bigger than Beyonce and Taylor Swift combined.
You know what? She's so big. I forgot her name. I wrote it down. Alexis Wilkins. I had to write it down to make sure I remembered it. That's how big she is. Andy, can you hit that one? Because listen to her rendition of the national anthem.
Whitney, better watch out.
Whitney. There's nothing compared to Whitney. Let me hear that.
